Innovation, National Defense Strategy, the future: CSAF at Air Force Association Air Warfare Symposium

By Tech. Sgt. Dan DeCook Secretary of the Air Force Public Affairs

ORLANDO, Fla. (AFNS) — In today’s complex global security environment, victory goes not to the innovator, but to the rapid integrator of new ideas, said Chief of Staff of the Air Force Gen. David L. Goldfein during the Air Force Association Air Warfare Symposium in Orlando, Florida, Feb. 23, 2018.

Goldfein said that if the Air Force is to thrive, Airmen must understand the geopolitical landscape and the dramatic technological acceleration defining the world in which we will be called upon to fight and win.

That understanding requires a shift not only in thinking but also in the guidelines that dictate how the Air Force operates.

“We are shifting our doctrinal dependence on large vulnerable centralized command and control nodes to more agile, networked solutions...moving to distributed control and decentralized execution of multi-domain operations,” said Goldfein.

Goldfein emphasized how his approach aligns with the National Defense Strategy’s call for services to use creative approaches, to make sustained investment, and to be disciplined in execution to field a force that is fit for our time and that can compete, deter, and win in this increasingly complex security environment.

“I highly encourage everyone to read the National Defense Strategy; it may be the best 11 pages you’ve read in a long time,” said Goldfein. “In this complex global environment there can be no complacency. The NDS directs the Air Force to be a more lethal and ready force, to strengthen alliances and partnerships, and to deliver greater, more affordable performance.”

Advancements in telehealth improve access to health care (U.S. Air Force photo illustration)

FALLS CHURCH, Va. — Advancements in telehealth services have made it easier and more convenient for patients to access the health care services they need. The Air Force Medical Service has used advancements in telehealth to offer patients a wide variety of services such as secured messaging with their health care team, and virtual appointments with specialists that can be accessed from anywhere.

FALLS CHURCH, Va. — The Air Force offers a wide and expanding range of telehealth services giving patients the opportunity to receive more efficient, convenient, and patient-centered care.

Telehealth brings a range of services all working together to improve access. These include everything from mobile and electronic access to personal health information, to virtual appointments and enterprise imaging. These enhance every aspect of the patient experience, giving patients more information to make choices about their health.

The most used telehealth service is direct interaction with online systems like the patient portal and secure messaging. These tools offer features such as appointment reminders, prescription information, and allow patients to communicate via secure email messages with their health care team.

“Having access to patients electronic health records and a way to quickly connect with providers allow real-time, daily interaction or interventions with their health care,” said Lt. Col. Antonio Eppolito, chief See Health page 6

21ST SPACE WING

COMMANDER’S CORNER

Dignity & Respect PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colorado — Ask anyone in the workplace what treatment they want most from their employer and coworkers and they will undoubtedly say they have a desire to be treated with dignity and respect. This is why one of Col. Todd Moore, 21st Space Wing commander’s priorities is “promoting a culture of dignity and respect.”

Some may think priorities are just another pretty list of words to fill space on a wall, but they’re much more than a list. There are so many aspects to promoting a culture of dignity and respect it can be mind boggling.

Dignity and respect apply to being a leader, mentor, neighbor, boss, employee or simply a good person.

Admittedly, treating others with dignity and respect can be easier said than done, especially when you’re operating in stressful environments and under short suspense’s, etc. Nevertheless, this is our standard and we must strive to treat each other with the utmost of respect and dignity.

In respect to being a leader, there are many styles of leadership – transformational, servant, autocratic, laissez-faire, democratic bureaucratic, charismatic, situational and the list goes on. As a leader you may move back and forth with a leadership style based on the situation you are facing. Each leadership style has its pros and cons and some styles are a better fit for each leaders’ personality and organization.

Regardless of your leadership style, we owe it to our employees to show them the proper respect and dignity.

My father taught me a long time ago – treat people how you want to be treated. As a leader I have made mis-

F R E E

Al Strait Wing Staff Agencies, 21st Space Wing takes in a host of leadership situations which included both delivering a message and how I received the message. Did I have to make some midcourse corrections?

Absolutely. Was it easy to make those midcourse corrections? Not really, as I had to change my approach, but by changing it was a win-win for everyone.

If we review our job descriptions we will not find a requirement to be disrespectful, belittling, demeaning, rude, or to put it in simple words, “be a butt head” to your team members. This creates a toxic work environment that no one wants to be a part of. I encourage anyone who is in this type of work environment to raise the issue to their supervisor. If your supervisor is the issue then let them know in a professional manner you are going to the next level of supervision. You may be thinking okay, if I do that my immediate supervisor may retaliate and take this out on me. This is reprisal and that is why we have First Sergeants, the Wing Inspector General, open door time with many of the commanders

and other venues for your voice to be heard. We have numerous outlets for us to be heard. If you feel like you have tried these venues and nothing works – try again. Sometimes change is difficult, but keep after it.

Just as a leader is responsible to show respect and dignity, employees also have that responsibility. In some situations we may have a supervisor with a conflicting leadership style. However, we still have a responsibility to be supportive, show respect and work towards mission success.

The way we communicate with one another can go a long way to ensure we promote a culture of dignity and respect. In order to avoid needless, insensitive, and unmeant disrespect, both the sender and receiver of the conversation need to consider the experience, attitudes, skills or perceptions of those individual they are engaging. Both parties should ask themselves, are we attentive, are we open to the message or do we have preconceived notions that prevent us from receiving or delivering the true meaning of the message. For good communication to take place both the sender and receiver must open up to each other and work for the success of the mission.

In closing, showing respect and dignity should not be that hard. It is common sense and we should each challenge ourselves to do a self-assessment on how we treat all people, from our family members to our coworkers and bosses. If the self-assessment suggests some changes are required, then let’s take charge and make the change. Maybe it is as simple as a license plate I see on base which simply says, “BPOLITE.”

First sergeants: Airmen first, mission second Audrey Jensen 21st Space Wing Public Affairs

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. —Instead of waiting for a signal to appear in the sky, first sergeants at Peterson Air Force Base, Colorado, are just one text or phone call away from helping their Airmen.

On-call 24/7, first sergeants, whether diamond or additional, are responsible for the well-being of every Airman or civilian in their assigned unit, including their families.

They also provide resources and assist the wing commander with decisions regarding Airmen.

Instead of focusing primarily on the Air Force Mission, first sergeants are focused on personnel.

“As a first sergeant, you know everything that’s going on in the unit,” said Master Sgt. Gerald Morey, 561st Network Operations Squadron first sergeant. “It’s more people business, so you’re really in the know of what’s going on.”

Though discipline is what comes to many Airmen’s minds when they think of first sergeants, Morey and other first sergeants would say otherwise. Out of 30 Airmen or civilians who may visit Master Sgt. John Szewczyk, 21st Force Support Squadron first sergeant, in one day, none are there because they’re in trouble, he said.

“Ninety percent of our job is talking to people when they’re going through deaths in the family, family situations or financial hardships,” said Szewczyk, who is responsible for 100 enlisted Airmen and 500 civilians in his unit. “Usually the 30 Airmen are here because they need assistance. They don’t know where to turn next.”

“Because I’m outside the chain of command, Airmen don’t have to go through leadership to see me. I’m just one helping resource they can come and talk to, even if it is just to talk to someone — I can be a mentor to them personally or professionally.”

Whether checking on Airmen with a visit to a unit or an Airman seeks out an individual meeting, first sergeants know that if they don’t have the answer, they can point Airmen and their families to the right resource, such as the 21st Force Support Squadron.

“For example, if the husband is deployed and the family didn’t get any money or they didn’t get paid, something happened with the paycheck — the spouse can come to the first sergeant,” Morey said. “We could go to Finance and get those questions answered. Or if their ID card expired,

(U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Dennis Hoffman)

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Master Sgt. Gerald Morey, 561st Network Operations Squadron first sergeant, has worked as a first sergeant for two years at Peterson Air Force Base, Colo. His responsibilities include taking care of and providing resources for Airmen assigned to his unit and their families. we could go to Military Personnel Flight and help with the process without it being a long headache.”

Through Operation Warm Heart, which helps Airmen in emergencies like when a family member passes away and the Airman cannot afford a plane ticket, first sergeants can facilitate donations to those in need.

“Any type of tragic or catastrophic thing that happens, a fire, or whatever the case may be, if we have it we’ll give it to them,” Morey said.

To help build morale within the unit, first sergeants also set up community service days for their Airmen and families.

While the majority of first sergeants’ responsibilities revolve around Airmen or civilians in their unit, Morey knows how much dedication it takes to be good at his job, to keep track of how his Airmen are doing and to be ready for any situation.

“I might be having dinner with my family, it may be the first time in a month I was able to sit down for us to go out and then just as the food comes, you get that phone call,” Morey said. “I have to tell my family, ‘Hey I have to go.’ That right there a lot of people don’t see.”

It is necessary for first sergeants to take care of themselves

as much as it is to take care of their Airmen, said Morey.

Though his unit is smaller, Master Sgt. Nathan McDonald, Joint Force Space Component Command Missile Warning Center Plans and Operations section chief and additional first sergeant at Cheyenne Mountain Air Force Station, Colorado, had to learn how to hold together his unit after the death of two service members.

“It’s not an easy thing to handle, dealing with a death,” McDonald said. “Sometimes you have to control your feelings enough to make sure you’re taking care of the unit.

Sometimes it’s easier than others depending on the situation.”

To seek out advice and to support one another, first sergeants are required to meet every week at Peterson AFB for the first sergeant council meeting, which is run by the command chief. Being an effective full-time or additional first sergeant means using the council meeting and others for support, according to Morey.

“This job is one of the most unique positions and it’s not a job for everybody,” said Morey. “If you don’t have a person who’s open and is the voice for that unit, it could really hurt the unit. Your job is to keep morale up. … Overall you have to be approachable and keep the unit running.”

Black history comes to life at Peterson

By David Meade 21st Space Wing Public Affairs

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — February is Black History Month and every year Airmen recognize the historical contributions that Black Americans have made in every endeavor throughout American history. This year volunteers brought historical figures back to life with a musical production.

Songs from Marvin Gaye and Bob Marley rang out from the ballroom of The Club on Peterson Air Force Base, Colorado, Feb. 22, 2018. The songs were part of a performance that highlighted the struggles of Black Americans in the military as post-Civil War Buffalo Soldiers and those who fought in Vietnam. Actors also took the stage to portray historical figures.

“We wanted to expose people to history that may not be so mainstream,” said Capt.

Keturah Onukwuli, 926th Wing Air Force reservist. “Everyone is familiar with Martin Luther King Jr., Malcom X and Rosa Parks but there’s so many other figures who we call ‘hidden figures’ because they have their own stories as to how their platforms brought the struggles of black people in America to the forefront.”

The musical began with two actors taking a walk through a black history museum. As the actors stopped at each of the five exhibits, a historical figure would appear on stage and tell their tale.

The first hidden figure the cast portrayed was U.S. Army 1st Lt. John R. Fox, an artillery officer with the 92nd Infantry Division, also known as the Buffalo Division. Fox was killed in action during World War II and posthumously received the Medal of Honor for sacrificing his life to stop a German advance during the Italian campaign.

The second hidden figure portrayed was educator, stateswoman and civil rights activist Mary McLeod Bethune who is famous for

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — DeMarcus Hysten, volunteer actor, impersonates rock ‘n’ roll legend Chuck Berry during the Black History Month celebration on Peterson Air Force Base, Colo., Feb. 22, 2018.

Actors portrayed various historical figures to share how their platforms brought the struggles of black people in America to the forefront. starting a private school for black Americans in Daytona Beach, Florida. Bethune was known as the First Lady of the Struggle while she served as advisor to President Franklin D. Roosevelt.

Olympic athlete, Tommie C. Smith, was next to be portrayed on stage. During the

Summer Olympics of 1968 in Mexico City, Mexico, Smith won the gold medal in the 200-meter race with a time of 19.83 seconds, the first time the 20-second barrier was broken legally. While standing on the medal podium, Smith and teammate John Carlos raised their fists to show solidarity with peo-

NEW HOMES PARKS & POOLS #BLREnoughSaid

ple fighting internationally for human rights.

The president of the International Olympic Committee at the time, Avery Brundage, removed Smith and Carlos from the Games.

The next hidden figure comes from the world of ballet, Misty Copeland. As the actress graced the stage with ballet dance moves she told the story of Copeland and how she became the first black American woman to be promoted to principal dancer in the American Ballet Theatre. Time Magazine also named Copeland as one of the 100 most influential people in the world.

Last to be represented on stage was the father of rock ’n’ roll, Chuck Berry. With famous titles like “Maybellene” and “Johnny B. Goode,” Berry took rhythm and blues and developed major elements of rock music such as guitar solos and showmanship. Berry was one of the first musicians inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame during its grand opening in 1986 and “Johnny B. Goode” is the only rock ‘n’ roll song on the golden record aboard the Voyager spacecraft launched in 1977.

Segregation in the military ended with President Harry Truman’s Executive Order 9981 on July 26, 1948. Since then the military continues to strive for equality and promote a culture of dignity and respect.

The celebration ended with closing remarks from Col. Todd Moore, 21st Space Wing commander and a buffet of southern-style comfort food.

“We can’t turn a blind eye to the issues black Americans may face being in the military because we come from different cultures,” said Onukwuli. “We have to be aware of the sensitivities, but at the end of the day it’s something to rejoice to know that how I view the military is very different than how my grandmother, or even great-grandparents, would view military service for people of black or brown skin.”

Sticking with the overarching innovation theme of the symposium, Goldfein echoed the thoughts delivered previously by Secretary of the Air Force Heather Wilson and Chief Master Sgt. of the Air Force Kaleth O. Wright by announcing two funding initiatives that will continue to empower Airmen and commanders at wings and squadrons.

“I am proud to announce that we are pushing out $64 million to wing commanders next week to kick start squadron innovation at the tactical edge,” said Goldfein. “This money is to let commanders, who know what their units need, to test, experiment and refine their best tactical ideas.”

The Air Force’s continued push to remove innovation roadblocks is not solely based on the recently released NDS, but is also part of Wilson and Goldfein’s continued efforts to ensure Airmen are prepared to work closely with international and joint partners on the ground, at sea, in the air and also in space.

“Mutually beneficial partnerships are crucial to our strategy. There is no greater confidence-building measure than sharing the critical and timely information with our allies and partners needed for success on the battlefield,” said Goldfein. “It’s time for us to give ideas an audience and incubate and integrate them for best effect. It is the honor of my life to serve with each of you. This is our time. Let’s get after it and don’t quit.”

of Air Force Telehealth. “Everything for the patient is centralized and they have 24-hour access to their up to date EHR.” Telehealth also means being able to replace some in-person visits with virtual appointments. Virtual Video Visits, or V3 appointments, are particularly popular and increasingly common form of virtual appointments. These appointments are scheduled just like an in-person visit and done via a secured video teleconference at a military treatment facility.

A coordinator remains with the patient to measure vitals and helps connect with the provider located at another MTF. “The goal of these V3 appointments is it connect patients with a specialist they might not otherwise have access to,” said Eppolito. “Telehealth services allow patients to access such specialty care as genetic counseling, nutrition therapy, and mental health services.”

The Peterson Exchange features an extensive BE FIT concept shop, where Airmen can find athletic apparel and footwear located in one convenient spot. The shop, which looks and feels like major sporting goods stores, is part of a strategic initiative to bring top national brands to military shoppers at competitive prices.

The Peterson Exchange is at 1030 E. Stewart Ave., Building 2017. For information on how the Exchange can help military shoppers lead a BE FIT lifestyle, contact the Exchange at 719-596-7272.

Another area of telehealth that is often overlooked is enterprise imaging. Enterprise imaging involves taking a diagnostic quality image, like a radiology exam, that is done in one place, and interpreted by a specialist who is at another location.

“In the areas of tele-radiology, tele-cardiology, tele-pathology, and tele-endoscopy, we are doing enterprise imaging,” said Eppolito. “As a result, the primary care provider is able to get specialty consultation and interpretation on a diagnostic image, even though the specialist is not physically in the same facility. This means the patient is able to get a quicker and complete diagnosis, and can pull up the report for future reference anywhere in the world.”

Telehealth also plays an important role in maintaining Airmen readiness. Having the ability to reach the care they need ensures that Airmen can address health concerns much quicker.

“Telehealth is vital to Airmen readiness since they can reach their primary care provider and get the treatment they need without much a delay,” said Eppolito. “Physicians in the U.S. can reach Airmen when they are in a deployed setting, outside of in-garrison medical facilities. Having access to real-time specialty care is valuable to maintaining readiness.”

AFIT Academic Coding Branch provides critical service to total force officers

By John Harrington 88th Air Base Wing Public Affairs

WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Ohio — While academic degrees are generally masked at officer promotion boards, they still play a critical role for certain leadership and technical positions, so keeping official records updated with the most accurate information can be vital.

Some situations where having an updated academic record is crucial include reserve and guard officers, who must have a bachelor’s degree in their record before being promoted to captain; doctors, scientists, engineers and some others who are actually detailed based on their academic degrees; and commanders, executive officers and some other leadership positions that take academic degrees into consideration, according to Maurice LaBrie, Air Force Institute of Technology Military Personnel and Support Operations chief. Even active duty officer academic records are only masked up until the colonel board, in which case a master’s degree must be in the officer’s official record.

It may surprise some that two Airmen at the AFIT Academic Coding Branch are responsible for updating the records of around 130,000 total force Air Force officers, including active duty, guard and reserve. They receive upwards of 20,000 transcripts annually for bachelor’s, master’s, doctorates and professional degrees and every one of them is entered by hand. It’s a job these Airmen relish.

“Yes, I absolutely enjoy what I do. I love my job here,” said Tech. Sgt. Jennifer Warehime, ACB noncommissioned officer-in-charge. “It’s interesting and even though we do the same thing day-to-day, it differs from day-today. Whether it be with customers or different transcripts or with different degrees that I see, I learn things every single day.”

They see themselves providing not only a vital mission for individual officers, but one that impacts the entire Air Force.

“[It’s important in order] for them to be assigned to the proper positions throughout their career progression,” said Master Sgt. Misti Rodriguez, ACB superintendent. “[We ensure] that their data entries are correct so that they can progress positively and the Air Force can find the person they’re looking for to meet its needs.”

The ACB is located at AFIT due to the fact that that’s where the officer’s academic database has resided since its start, said LaBrie. But soon those files will merge with the Air Force enlisted academic degrees database located at Maxwell Air Force Base Gunter Annex in Montgomery, Alabama. While the ACB won’t be physically moving, once the data merge is complete officers should start receiving automated notifications once their records are updated – currently, officers must check the Virtual Military Personnel Flight time-to-time until they see the change.

While processing large quantities of transcripts can be time consuming, Rodriguez says that the best thing that officers can do to speed up their updates is to closely follow submission instructions at the ACB’s website: www.afit.edu/CODING. That, and understand that all of the officer academic record updates for the entire Air Force comes down to a small, dedicated team.

“People don’t realize that it’s just the two of us,” Warehime said. “But, we actually do get a lot of emails thanking us for the quick response or for updating their data. It makes the job worth it.”

The Coding Branch suggests allowing 2-3 weeks for delivery and processing of traditional mail. The submitter will notice their update on the Career Data Brief in the vMPF within 24 hours of the processing. The AFIT Coding Branch cannot make real-time updates to Assignment Management System Single Unit Retrieval Format (SURF) or the Air Force Virtual Education Center (AFVEC) and it can take up to 30 days for changes to update in those systems. If an individual would like delivery confirmation of their materials, they should use certified mail or another tracked delivery method.

Visit the ACB website for more details.

Jennifer Warehime, Academic Coding Branch noncommissioned officer-in-charge, receive academic transcripts twice a week. During graduation season, they say the mail comes in large containers. Together the two update an average of between 15,000-20,000 transcripts a year in support of 130,000 total force Air Force officers including active duty, guard and reserves.

NELLIS AIR FORCE BASE, Nevada (AFNS) — Athletes pose for a group photo during the 5th Annual Air Force Wounded Warrior Trials opening ceremony at the Warrior Fitness Center on Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada, Feb. 23, 2018. Service members are participating in adaptive athletic reconditioning for lasting effects on physical and emotional recovery.

By Master Sgt. Matthew Bates Defense Media Activity

NELLIS AIR FORCE BASE, Nevada (AFNS) — More than 150 wounded warriors from the Air Force, Army, Great Britain and Australia gathered today to officially open the fifth annual Air Force Trials at Nellis Air Force Base.

The Paralympic-style event features wheelchair basketball, sitting volleyball, archery, shooting, track, field, cycling and swimming competitions, where participants vie for a spot on the Air Force’s Warrior Games team which will compete June 2-9, in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

The Air Force Trials, which run through March 2, are part of an adaptive and resiliency sports program designed to promote the mental and physical well-being of the wounded, ill and injured service members who participate.

“We are here for one reason: To support you and help you on the road to recovery,” said Maj. Gen. Brian T. Kelly, Air Force Personnel Center commander, during remarks at the ceremony. “Our hope is that you leave here stronger than when you arrived.”

The Trials are also a test of the athletes’ resiliency, strength and endurance, accord-

ing to Col. Mike Davis, vice commander of the 99th Air Base Wing, and Nellis and the surrounding community are excited to host the event.

“We are honored for the opportunity to support these warriors,” he said.

During the ceremony, the athletes were recognized by service and nation, the U.S. Air Force Academy’s Wings of Blue performed a parachute demonstration, two HH-60 Pave Hawks from the 66th Rescue Squadron flew a two-ship formation and the Trials torch was lit.

This year, the participants are made up of 52 active duty, 12 Air National Guard and Reserve and 55 Air Force veterans.

The Trials are part of the Air Force’s Wounded Warrior program, which is a congressionally mandated and federally funded organization administered by AFPC in San Antonio, Texas. The program includes recovery care coordinators, non-medical care managers and other professionals who work with wounded warriors, their families and caregivers to guide them through various day-to-day challenges.

Successful tele-genetics pilot makes genetic counseling easily accessible

By Shireen Bedi

Air Force Surgeon General Public Affairs

FALLS CHURCH, Va. — A new telehealth program is expanding access to expert genetic counseling by making it available remotely, connecting families with trained genetic specialists who can help interpret their results.

Genetic counseling is a growing medical specialty that is becoming integrated into everyday clinical practice, and can have a deeply personal effect on patients and their families. The results of genetic tests can change the course of an Air Force career, how families plan their lives, and can even affect future generations.

Genetic testing encompasses a wide range of health concerns and involve hundreds of different tests. Interpreting genetic test results is challenging for many general providers. Both positive and negative results can have long-term effects on patients and their families. Having genetic experts available to provide pre-test and post-test counseling is critical for patients to make informed decisions.

“Genetic specialists are able to interpret complex results, explain to patients the potential impact they could have, and direct them to the appropriate level of care,” said Capt. (Dr.) Mauricio De Castro, medical geneticist with the Air Force Medical Genetics Center of Excellence at Keesler Air Force Base, Miss.

With tele-genetics, patients are able to access a genetic specialist anywhere in the world and receive the same level of care as a face-to-face appointment. The patient can visit their local military treatment facility for all meetings and any lab tests, and receive

specialty care from a trained genetic specialist via a video teleconference.

“A tele-genetics appointment usually starts with a pre-test counseling session where sample is collected. This is usually a blood draw, but can also include saliva or amniotic fluid,” explained De Castro. “Results can take anywhere between two to 16 weeks depending on the type of test. Lab results are sent directly to the genetic specialist who can interpret the results and provide post-test counseling.”

Access to a genetic specialist is important when considering the impact results would have on an Airman’s readiness. The limited number of military genetic specialists has meant longer wait times or extensive travel to get specialty care. Tele-genetics allows Airmen access to a genetic specialists that

keeps Airmen readiness a central focus of the consultation.

“Many civilian providers are not attuned to the nuances of being in the military,” said De Castro. Military geneticists have the background to counsel patients on things specific to being an active duty member. For instance, we can look at how the results of a genetic test affect an Airman’s fitness for duty or long-term career. That is one of the benefits of increasing access to geneticists who are knowledgeable on how the military system works.”

Tele-genetics increases access to care without delaying the patient’s diagnosis. This is especially significant for deployed patients.

“Tele-genetics helps our Airmen maintain and improve their readiness,” said Maj.

FALLS CHURCH, Va. — Senior Airman Kimberly Deveau (left) at Spangdahlem Air Base, Germany consults with geneticist, Capt. (Dr.) Mauricio De Castro, staff medical geneticist at Keesler Air Force Base, Miss., using the Clinical Access Station, Feb. 1, 2018. The tele-genetics pilot program connects patients directly to specialized genetic counselors and geneticists from other locations.

Vonida Goodison, disease manager and virtual health coordinator with Spangdahlem Air Base in Germany. “They do not have to wait months to see a geneticist until they see the results. Tele-genetics can help get people back into the fight that much quicker. That is less time away from work and from the mission.”

The first patients at Spangdahlem Air Base began receiving tele-genetic counseling in December 2017. Using a room specifically designed for virtual health appointments, the Airman and his entire family was able to connect with a military geneticist at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Md. “An in-person genetic counseling appointment would have required aeromedical evacuation to the U.S.,” said Lt. Col. (Dr.) Ruth Brenner, chief of personalized medicine with the Air Force Medical Service. “We were able to provide this service via video teleconference over a secured network that allowed the family to receive care from a geneticist.

This was something never done before in military health.”

Currently, the tele-genetics program is in its first phase, with two provider sites and three patient sites. The AFMS is working to expand the program to other Air Force MTFs that have limited access to in-person genetic counseling.

“It means so much for patients to access genetic counseling and receive treatment quickly,” explained Brenner. “The mother of our first tele-genetics patient expressed how appreciative she was just to have the opportunity to talk to the geneticist and have her fears addressed. Bringing this type of support to patients is invaluable.”
